The Anarchist Roots of Geography
THE ANARCHIST ROOTS OF GEOGRAPHY: Toward Spatial Emancipation. By Simon Springer. 229 pp.; diagrs., index. Minneapolis, Minn.: University of Minnesota Press, 2016. $27.00 (paper), isbn 978008166977
The Worlding of the Asian Modern
This paper reconsiders the historical depth and global range of art works and practices that we might call the ' Asian Modern'. 1 It will not rehearse the copious arguments for, 2 and some against, 3 the notion of a modernity in Asian art emerging parallel to and, at the same time, in concert with, modernity in Euramerica.Suffice it to reiterate that the Asian Modern is an hermeneutic construct for interpreting multiple art discourses; an empiric…
Medicalization of global health 3
There is growing recognition of the massive global burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) due to their prevalence, projected social and economic costs, and traditional neglect compared to infectious disease. The 2011 UN Summit, WHO 25×25 targets, and support of major medical and advocacy organisations have propelled prominence of NCDs on the global health agenda. NCDs are by definition 'diseases' so already medicalized. But their social drive…
Medicalization of global health 2
Increased recognition draws needed attention to individual suffering and the population impacts, but medicalizing global mental health produces a narrow view of the problems and solutions. Early framing by advocates of the global mental health problem emphasised biological disease, linked psychiatry with neurology, and reinforced categories of mental health disorders. Universality of biomedical concepts across culture is assumed in the globalisat…
Medicalization of global health 1
Medicalization analyses have roots in sociology and have critical usefulness for understanding contemporary health issues including the 'post-2015 global health agenda'. Medicalization is more complex than just 'disease mongering'--it is a process and not only an outcome; has both positive and negative elements; can be partial rather than complete; and is often sought or challenged by patients or others in the health field. It is understood to be…
Medicalization of global health 4
Universal health coverage (UHC) has emerged as the leading and recommended overarching health goal on the post-2015 development agenda, and is promoted with fervour. UHC has the backing of major medical and health institutions, and is designed to provide patients with universal access to needed health services without financial hardship, but is also projected to have 'a transformative effect on poverty, hunger, and disease'. Multiple reports and …

Presidential Address on the Importance of our Understanding Organizational Conflict
This exhortation for increased research on organizational conflict focuses upon three concerns: (1) conceptualizing it as a useful variable, (2) demonstrating its critical role in building both organizational and general social theory, and (3) highlighting the current intense interests by organizations in conflict and dispute management procedures as one important opportunity to understand organizational and general social change

This article argues that social scientists need to develop a detailed understanding of ‘technology’, and its relationship to social variables, if the full impfication of new technologjes is to be adequately investigated.

In this short, yet theoretically rich and provocative work, John Protevi makes a strong transdisciplinary case for the merits of cooperative, nonhierarchical, nonstatist societies. To investigate t
The Policeman in the Community
A Theory of Deference Exchange in Police-Civilian Encounters
The authors suggest an explanation of police-civilian behavior based on a normative and interpersonal construct rather than on a psychological construct. Police behavior must be explained in terms of the rules which order their relations with civilians and which are usually mutually acknowledged by both. Among these rules the authors posit that in a typical encounter relations are governed by ansymmetrical status norm when deference exchange is i…
Socio-Economic Class and Area as Correlates of Illegal Behavior Among Juveniles
Until recently almost all efforts to discover characteristics that differentiate juveniles who violate legal norms from those who do not have compared institutional and non-institutional populations. Though many researchers still employ a delinquent or criminal sample from institutions there is a growing awareness that the process through which boys and girls are selected to populate our correctional institutions may cause such comparison studies…
Measuring Alienation Within a Social System
Formal and Informal Social Controls of Employee Deviance
Using the phenomenon of deviance by employees against the rules of the formal work organization as the behavior of interest, the differential saliences of both formal (i.e., management) and informal (i.e., co-worker) sanction severity are empirically compared. As hypothesized, the perceived threat of informal sanctions by one's fellow co-workers explains both property deviance and production deviance far better than the perceived severity of the …
Deterrence in the Workplace
The phenomenon of employee theft is examined empirically, utilizing a deterrence paradigm. Employees selected randomly from three different industry sectors and metropolitan areas were asked to self-report their involvement in a number of property theft activities within the employment setting. Using a weighted least-squares logit regression analysis, the study found that the perception of both the certainty and severity of organizational sanctio…

Employee Deviance
Inquiries into the nature of deviance in the employment setting have generally assumed (without much empirical support) that an important explanatory factor is the employee's perception regarding quality of the work experience. Testing the above hypothesis, this study examines self-report data from almost 5000 respondents in 35 midwestern corporations, concluding that both 'general' and more 'specific' measures of job satisfaction are significant…

On Anarchism In An Unreal World
In his political theory, William Godwin, the founder of philosophical anarchism, defends a form of decentralized democracy as a transition stage toward his ideal of a stateless society. Godwin sanctioned temporary alliance with liberal political factions, and was a staunch defender of freedom of thought and expression. Contrary to Isaac Kramnick's interpretation, he bitterly opposed authoritarian measures such as Grenville's and Pitt's bills, alt…

Goal Orientations and Illegal Behavior Among Juveniles
This study of goal orientations among juveniles in four types of communities—rural farm, upper urban, lower urban, industrial city—examines two conflicting theories about illegal behavior: (1) that it is due largely to the pursuit of goals peculiar to the lower class and (2) that it is provoked by unequal chances of attaining goals which are essentially similar for all classes. The findings indicate, among other things, that both viewpoints have …

Polygraph and Interview Validation of Self-Reported Deviant Behavior
In the study of deviant behavior, current heavy reliance upon data from anonymous questionnaires demands concern for data validity. Responses to anonymous questionnaires involving a wide range of deviant behavioral items, including the Dentler-Monroe and NyeShort delinquency scale items, were compared to responses made during a follow-up interview and polygraph examination. The overall accuracy of the total questionnaire was high although results…
Variants of Integration of Social Control Agencies
Interaction between social control personnel about situations of mutual concern is assumed to be eufunctional. Propositions pertaining to avoidance of such interaction are derived and then examined with data collected from 743 social control personnel. Some conclusions are that agency personnel avoid their own agency personnel less and hold them in higher esteem than other agency personnel. Low intra-agency avoidance appears more strongly related…

Marx, Bakunin and the Problem of Social Transformation
In their debates of the 1860s and 1870s, Marx and Bakunin presented two distinctive interpretations of social change, the nature of domination, and the conditions for human liberation. Although their opposition had its basis in fundamental theoretical differences that are of enduring significance, the dispute has long been of interest primarily to historians, who have noted its considerable historical importance. For first it contributed to the d…
An Ineffective Effectiveness Study and Some Suggestions for Future Research
Following contingency theory on a goal based model of effectiveness, an analysis of the effectiveness of 73 human service organizations was attempted. The initial measure of effectiveness was self-reports from organizational members. When these measures were compared with additional indicators of effectiveness on the same goals, dissimilar results were found. This suggested that it was fruitless to try to establish single measures of organization…
